Cliff Shot Bloks Energy Chews

Clif Shot Bloks are a convenient nutrition option for endurance athletes. Clif Shot Bloks come in chewable, 33 calorie cubes, making it easy to customize and track caloric and electrolyte intake during long outings and races.

Clif Shot Bloks come in a convenient 'Fastpak', a specifically designed smaller package, ideal for jersey pockets, running shorts, and backpacks. It also opens easily and then allows the athlete to access and squeeze up each blok one by one. Finally, the packaging reduction vs. the original package yielded a 33% reduction of packaging material.

Clif Shot Bloks are primarily used by performance athletes - runners, cyclists, mountain bikers, triathletes, and adventure racers. However, any performance-oriented athlete needing a quick burst of energy can benefit. Generally, performance athletes need to consume 200-400 calories per hour from all sources, such as gels, chews, bars and drinks. Half a packet of Clif Shot Bloks can be eaten 15 minutes prior to activity to increase blood sugar levels, followed by 1-2 packets per hour during activity. For flavors with added caffeine, it is recommended to consume half a packet 15 minutes before activity, and one packet during activity. Consumption of Clif Shot Bloks should always be followed with a mouthful of water. Caffeinated flavors are not recommended for pregnant women, children, or people sensitive to caffeine.
